| Description | The Administrative Procedure Act (Chapter 34.05 RCW) requires that, before adopting a significant legislative rule, Ecology must, “Determine that the probable benefits of the rule are greater than its probable costs, taking into account both the qualitative and quantitative benefits and costs and the specific directives of the statute being implemented.” [RCW 34.05.328(1)(c)] For the adopted rule, Chapter 173-441 WAC, Reporting of Emissions of Greenhouse Gases, this means Ecology must estimate the impacts of the rule on individuals, businesses and the public. Impacts are determined by comparing the expected regulatory environment without the rule to the regulatory environment with the rule in place. Ecology performed this analysis in comparison to the existing federal reporting rule (the baseline). This document provides the public with an overview of the methods Ecology used to perform this analysis, and the likely impacts found. |
